stock SE 4.0.A.2.368 FW​

hello guys!

i am new to kernel development but i think this kernel would be useful for a lot of ppl using stock SE 4.0.A.2.368 FW... for older kernel versions for older FW refer to following: Older Releases [FW: 3.0.1.A.0.145/146/148]

[ features ]

[v08 onwards] compiled using toolchain gcc-4.4.3 (might improve kernel performance)

[v08 onwards] added new CPU governors:

InteractiveX

Savaged-Zen

SmartAssV2

[v07-FIX onwards] fixed sysinit support

[v07-FIX onwards] enabled /system/etc/install-recovery.sh execution

[v07 onwards] added new bootup CPU thresholding, device will no longer jump to max freq for initial few seconds (might help some device who have booting issues)

[v07 onwards] improved init.d support, now scripts in /system/etc/init.d will automatically be given correct permissions and be executed (this will not correct/fix the errors which might be inherently present in the script)

[v07 onwards] corrected VDD control to show only those frequencies which are enabled in CPU-freq table

[v06 onwards] added new logo!! Thanks to soheil_rf

[v06 onwards] added I/O Schedulers:

V(R)

BFQ

[v06 onwards] added CPU Governors:

Smartass

Scary

MinMax

[v06 onwards] enabled NLS_UTF8

[v05 onwards] added user-level/runtime CPU voltage control [VDD control "sysfs interface"] (for more info keep checking this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16610299&postcount=362)

[v05 onwards] added Interactive CPU Governor

[v05 onwards] added new Max frequency: :eek: 1.9Ghz :eek:

[v05 onwards] added lots of intermediate frequencies (from 122Mhz to 1.9Ghz for almost every 100/120Mhz there is a select-able frequency)

[v04 onwards] updated recovery related scripts to resolve mounting issue

[v04 onwards] added cpu freq thresholds to throttle CPU speeds to stock values when inside recovery

[v04 onwards] corrected adb issues (in both OS & recovery)

[v04 onwards] added lots of intermediate frequencies

[v03 onwards] updated recovery to CWM v4.0.1.4 FreeXperia Team

[v03 onwards] {ramdisk tweak} /sd-ext also symlinked to /mnt/sd-ext

[v03 onwards] enabled SWAP support

[v03 onwards] enabled CDROM filesystem support in kenrel (now u can mount ISO files)

[v02 onwards] added under/overclock from 128Mhz to 1.862Ghz [NOT UNDERVOLTED] (for sake of safe booting the device will always boot at min 245Mhz / max 1024Mhz)

[v01 onwards] added new LOGO... no more boring SE TEXT logo ;)

[v01 onwards] autorooting (prerooted)

kernel is insecure (ro.secure=0)

su binary & superuser.apk will automatically be installed by kernel :D (thanks to Bin4ry for posting the file RootXperia.zip; i have used the superuser files from his zip)

busybox already installed in /sbin/

busybox will get copied to /system/xbin/ if its not present there

adb server is persistent

usb debugging enabled

rootfs and /system mounted as rw (thank you Blagus for the tip ;))

[v01 onwards] CWM recovery (Thanks to FreeXperia team)

[v01 onwards] init.d scripts/binaries execution support

EXT2

EXT3

EXT4

NTFS (Read & Write)

[v01 onwards] enabled a few I/O Schedulers

noop

Anticipatory

Deadline (default)

CFQ

[v01 onwards] enabled NFS (client & server) support in kernel

[v01 onwards] enabled CIFS support in kernel

[v01 onwards] enabled access to kernel .config (can be pulled from /proc/config.gz)

and finally ME for getting this all together for u guys ;)

thank you all for ur work!

[ requirements ]

stock SE 4.0.A.2.368 FW (available from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1202441)

bootloader unlocked

working fastboot

u have read this: [How-To] Safely test custom kernels / custom ROMs and get back to stock SE 2.3 ROM

android app for overclocking like SetCPU (paid) or NoFrills CPU Control (free)

NoFrills CPU Control (free) to select I/O scheduler

VDD control app: IncrediControl

[OPTIONAL] CIFS Manager (free)

[OPTIONAL] Swapper 2 (free)

[ how to install ]

download the boot.img

save the boot.img in the folder with fastboot binaries (fastboot.exe files)

power down device

start device in fastboot mode

use the following command to flash the boot.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

reboot phone and enjoy the kernel ;)

FOR OVERCLOCKING

start SetCPU/NoFrills CPU Control app on ur NEO (or any other app which supports overclocking) (u may get a popup asking for SuperUser permissions, click ok/yes/allow)

now slowly increase the MAX slider to the right (one notch at a time) to increase the maximum frequency limit

DO NOT JUMP TO THE LAST POSSIBLE FREQUENCY

SLOWLY increase the frequency one notch at a time and do stability/testing for few hours

[ for modders/themers/others ]

hey guys here i am attaching a template update.zip which has been tested to work on the recovery provided here... u can add ur stuff to that file and edit the updater-script so that the u can flash ur files via this recovery...

basically it contains the correct combination of update-binary & mounting syntax...

this file is NOT required for normal/general users

TEMPLATE UPDATE.ZIP (v1)

for older kernel versions for older FW refer to following:

cheers!
